Description

Hardcover in publisher’s non price-clipped dust-jacket. 368 pages. Bibliographic References, Index. Illustrated with photographs. First American edition, first printing with full number line. A chronicle of the somewhat turbulent history of jazz in Russia from the time of the Revolution, tracing the pendulum swings from denouncement as Western bourgeois decadence to celebration as a great proletarian art form. No previous ownership marks. Moderate staining to top edge of bulked sheets, else an internally clean, and unmarked copy. Very good in a near very good dust-jacket.
